How many have had there minipro fixed by Sony with unlocked bootloader
Sent from my SK17i using Tapatalk
what do you mean by 'fixed by sony'? you void your warranty after unlocking bootloader.
They will fix it, but you will have to pay if you void your warranty.
Tip: those guys in the repair center aren't too smart, you could probably say that the phone broke by itself(you haven't done any rooting, flashing...) they will probably believe you
I took my mini to the service center for calibration,with test point unlocked boot loader, and no one noticed! They did the calibration and my phone is fixed and unlocked:-D

i replaced the lcd screen and digitiser on sony ericsson x10i because i broke them. but i can't enter to bootloader to calibrate the lcd screen.if there is anyone who can help me to fix this problem. that would be great helpful.
Until the devs hack the boot loader your stuck unless you can get to a sony repair / service center.

is it the only way?
No one can do anything with the boot loaded until it has been cracked so you yourself will not be able to do it, you need to take it to a sony repair center if it needs calibrating.
Unless you try going to a regular phone repair shop and it doesn't need calibrating.
Good luck with that one eh!

Any one got the ftf for uk tmobile, looks like my neo v needs warranty work. I have a nandroid but on restoring it is prompting for an update that fails leaving the phone unusable, I have tried generic google searches but not sure of the file name.

I don't think they'll check if you run T-Mobile, or Generic. Just relock the bootloader flash stock firmware with flashtool and choose the repair option in pc companion. That will do.
Unfortunately they do, as tmobile always use a branded bootsplash, if it doesn't show they don't deal. How is pccompanion going to fix a broken button......

Why ask us if your reply is a flame he only tryed to help

Flame not intended, generic wont do, the store claim the handset is not one of theirs and the home button has failed, handset is only two months old.

I just think he wrongly understood what sdk wanted to say.
Well return the phone 2 month old so what if it don't have T-Mobile fw the key is broken flashing the phone won't do that unless you messed up/ try reflash a rom
I have had middle key not respond from flashing rom
What u mean broken
Or not working?
Anyway 2 month old why even ask I would of just returned it under my 365 day UK user warranty that all products have here

That is the point, Tmobile store will not accept it's theirs due to wrong bootsplash so will not send it for repair.
Several flashes and wipes have not revived the button, so must be hardware.

Your from the UK why you putting up with that crap kill the battery n talk it back refuse to take it home ,make them send it to repair department
And don't give me that about they won't take it back if it has a broken button its there obligation to repare or replace for 12 month believe me mate
Iv sent back bootlader open phones with fn cm7 on man with screen leak if it won't turn on how can they know what boot splash is like
If the handset is dameged its nothing to do with rom

I don't know how it works in the UK, but I could just let my phone being picked up and send directly to Sony's repair centre, without even contacting the shop.
Why not start flashing your phone then half way through pull the lead out so it's bricked and then take it back ? Then you can tell them at t-mobile that it happened while updating through pcc ;-)

Sorted now spoke to T-Mobile by phone and sending back bypassing the store

Glad you found a way
Anw, you triggered me on idea. We should make something like they did on Arc and X10 Mini.

I've read thread how u sent the phone urself and if they detected trace of modding its all voided warranty blah blah blah

does it matter if its the telus staff who sent the phone?

You should be fine if you are in warranty.. You will get either a replacement or a refurbish one, as long as it was not physically damaged or the water sensor has not been tripped.

When a device had problems and is sent back to the shop, they fix it and sell it again, that why refurbished stuff is cheaper.

Hello Xda I've soft bricked my S3 I can access download mode.
I got into this problem cause I flashed Supernexus it worked fine for a few days. Until I went into bootloop and couldn't do anything I couldn't access recovery so I just flashed the stock rom and now the phone only boots into download mode and can be viewed by odin also it says on the phone please connect to kies in recovery. I done this put the phone doesn't get recognised any ideas and help will be appreciated

if you can't access recovery after reflashing a stock ROM, send it to service
and ask for help in the help section, not here
They won't help because its rooted and stuff also i have a slight crack so sending it into service will cost me like 200$ to repair
What build are you using? Looks like I'm moving away from that ROM 0.o

yeah, the other option is to throw the phone away. your call.
or you can also be doing something wrong.
or you can hope for me to be wrong.
i've been searching around an they calling this the ''sudden death syndrome'' and can happen at any time to a select few all you have to do is send it into service and get it repaired for free but i can't because i've got a slight hairline crack so my warranty is void and they are asking for around £150 for repairing this phone
You have a software problem not hardware. The crack has nothing to do with that. I had a crack on my S1 but sent it to service for new USB port - no problems.

I've rang them again after you said this and said sorry we can't do anything until u repair the screen by us or yourself. Also they said we can't guarantee that the problem I got was not from my crack so they said no to repairing for free they asking for 135£ to repair the crack
Then they'll replace the motherboard for free

I can't seem to find a solid answer on other threads, but if I unlock my boot loader, is anything besides gracenote and bravia engine lost?
Sony and xda dev Doomlord have said nothing is lost from unlocking your xperia Z2 bootloader

Exactly.... The only thing you really loose is your warranty. And for us in the US warranty is a mute point as this phone has to be imported through grey market resellers. Unlock away Only thing I've heard is DRM and that might be lost but what is DRM for anyways?

DRM keys, unique key codes to each individual device, it at one point was a secondary serial, then it became a dependancy item,
Its kinda just for warrentys now since unlocking your bootloader voids such
